[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm a NP and I wouldn't want to live like that. My grandparents had full active lives and passed away in their late 80s after a few weeks of suffering. I refuse to spend $$$$ to be in a bed with a feeding tube down my throat and no mental cognition. This is my idea of hell. [/quote] But practically, how would you pull something like this off? It sounds like I'm joking, but I'm not. I don't really want all of my savings to be blown in my last year(s) on treatments I don't want, but I'm not really going to expect my children or spouse to smother me with a pillow. A living will is fine, but don't those only apply if I'm unconscious?[/quote] overdose on pills. [/quote] That's much harder to accomplish than you think. I'm a hospice worker and you would be surprised at the incredible will humans have to live. Intentionally killing yourself in the absence of depression is nearly impossible.[/quote]
